-It's fitting seeing how Nintendo promoted the sequel and announced the original coming to the 3DS too

- Called Shantae & The Pirate Curse, it's a direct sequel to Shantae: Risky's Revenge and picks up where the last game ended with Shantae no longer being a genie and trying to defend Scuttle Town from attacks by the Ammo Baron
-Risky Boots shows up on her door step looking for help
- Shantae's genie magic had split into 30 parts and bonded with Risky's tinkerbat minions
- the minions quickly mutinied and overthrew Risky
- the minions set out to resurrect Risky's mentor The Pirate Master
- the Pirate Master is a lot worse/a lot more evil than Risky
- Risky and Shantae must team up to stop the tinkerbat's from unleashing the evil of the Pirate Master and regain all of Shantae's genie power by destroying the 30 evil tinkerbats

- Familiar faces like Rollytops, Uncle Mimic, Sky, and Bolo will appear
- Special Pirate Gear for Shantae to collect in order to reach new areas (Grappling hook, guns, knives, swords, etc.) (hat in one pic, maybe it will give her powers like a disguise, looks early in development, looks alot like the Risky's Revenge, good looking game, but that was on the DSi)

- Each piece of pirate gear will serve 2 purposes ( enhance mobility and act as a weapon for example a flintlock pistol can be used to kill enemies and hit out of reach switches) and can be upgraded
-Speaking of, early scan of RR showed this guy, didn't appear as a common enemy in (Areas not seen in Risky's Revenge, like this snowy place)
- New and old locations throughout Sequin Land will appear and will supposedly be twice as large as Risky's Revenge. You'll go everywhere even the underworld and the heavens. They'll also improve the faulty map system from Risky's Revenge, using a more Metroid style map system
- There's Alternate/hidden paths for those who are want to stay off the beaten path
- It Will have 3D effects similar to Mighty Switch Force and best of all, Jake Kaufman is back composing the score for the game (Free soundtrack, i'll link it, donate if you can)

-Speculation: There will be some bonus to those who played Shantae: Risky's Revenge and Mighty! Flip Champs. (They did it with people who played Shantae on the GBA, they did it with Shantae: Risky's Reveng on the DSi with Mighty Flip Champs!)

-More speculation: Who knows? If Shantae is working with Risky, maybe she'll be playable as well !

I'm looking forward to this title, it was my first review ever so obviously expect to hear more from me about this. I'll leave you with this: Shantae as a Pirate.

Shantae. A PIRATE! Why is this not in my hands right now?!?

I think that speaks for itself. Until next time, game on my friends! Spread the news everyone! Shantae is back and belly than ever!
